Atypical facial pain

Hello,
2 years ago I was hit in the face on the temporal bone right the hairline with a sharp object.
It didn't feel like it was hard enough, It was just like a normal blow, no signs of concussion at all, i didn't even feel dizzy or pain from it, but the next day I started feeling pain in my eye, on the temple area to the cheek and in my upper molar, fullness in my ear and bruxism on top of that, there was no signs of inflammation or anything else, and still no signs of concussion, no headache or any other symptoms. I have been to numerous doctors, some say its a muscle problem, other say its trigeminal neuropathy.
The pain has been constant since it started, its low in intensity sometimes, and in the last 6 months, i started having headache, brain fogs and other unrelated health problem.
After doing my own research I feel like there is some misalignment in my cranial bones, since i sometimes feel a very little radiation of pain to the occipital area, and was thinking to try cranio sacral therapy.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hello and welcome to NeuroTalk

I'm sorry I can't help you with your questions regarding cranio sacral therapy. I'm sure others here can though.

In case you ever need them just wanted to let you know that there is an

take care.

ronky,

Have you had your TMJ checked ? You could have thrown your jaw out. You could also have thrown your neck out. From what I have read, the cranial plates do not move after 20 to 25 years old.

I got my tmj checked and its very normal and healthy, just wondering could the brain fog and headache be related to the concussion and the facial pain related to the trigeminal nerve, or all these symptoms are related to 1 problem ?
